    The above issue occurs with us in errors=continue mode when accompanied by
    storage failures. There have been many inconsistencies in the file system
    data.
    In the case of file system data inconsistency, for example, if the block
    bitmap of a referenced block is not set, it can lead to the situation where
    a block being committed is allocated and used again. As a result, the
    following condition will not be satisfied then trigger BUG_ON. Of course,
    it is entirely possible to construct a problematic image that can trigger
    this BUG_ON through specific operations. In fact, I have constructed such
    an image and easily reproduced this issue.
    Therefore, J_ASSERT() holds true only under ideal conditions, but it may
    not necessarily be satisfied in exceptional scenarios. Using J_ASSERT()
    directly in abnormal situations would cause the system to crash, which is
    clearly not what we want. So here we directly trigger a JBD abort instead
    of immediately invoking BUG_ON.

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Unity Linux security advisory.

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
number.");
